AustrianGP: Hamilton handed 3-place grid penalty

Hamilton handed 3-place grid penalty by race stewards just hours before race start.

Hamilton was summoned to Stewards yesterday post qualifying, for not slowing down during yellow flags on his final flying lap in Q3. His teammate, who was on provisional pole brought yellow flag after running wide in his final run.

On Saturday night Stewards cleared Hamilton of any wrong doing, but on Sunday Red Bull appealed against stewards decision with new evidence. After reviewing evidence, Stewards decided Hamilton ignored yellow flags and he didn’t slowed down.

With this penalty the Six time champion will be starting from P5. Norris and Albon will be promoted to P3 and P4 respectively.
